The review was good and very usefull. One has to consider "After Sales Services" and "Service Netwrok" very seriously. Several companies have come and gone in the past. In this case Maruti stands first and unconquered. There is almost an Authorised work shop in every taluk where we can go for service with peace of mind. This is not the case with VW, FIAT or FORD. One must need a peace of mind after bying a car; which surely one can get 100% from Maruti. Though, Swift and DZire have their own cons like rattling on bad roads, poor quality of interiors (compared to Polo - But check the cost), No good tyres (Most reviews suggest upgrade) etc... but as long as the price of all models do not increse exorbitantly from the current level, its nice to go for swift/Dzire according to once need. Maruti K-Series Engine- A Proven success on Indian Road. I’m not questioning the quality and technology of VW or Fiat (The Technology used in K-Series was from Fiat only) but VW polo (Diesel) yet to be launched and  tested/proved on our road conditions. Why take risk?. Booking : VW Polo Rs 50,000/- Delivery: 4 to 6 Months. Maruti: Rs 10,000/- and Delivery-4 Months (Max).    

i personally belive that Swift is the best of all...i bought this car second hand thru trovit site. Even though this car is great in terms of mileage. I get a mileage of 19 kmpl on highways and something between 14 to 15 kmpl in city. I am not very good at maintaining my car and wanted a car that required low maintenance. this car is just perfect for people like us who cannot devote much time in maintaining.

I bought a 1.2 Petrol Figo, the car is not bad at all. Very comfortable and spacious, also it rides well and handles beautifully. FE is about 12 in the city with AC on 50% of the time. Have not faced any issues with service yet in 2 months as there was nothing much apart from routine check, hope it stays this way.
